Find out in this report how the two Data Visualization solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The Qlik Sense cloud insights advisor helps our business users to get the answers to their data questions so that they do not have to rely on IT/BI resources every time they have some data request."
"The drag and drop UI has been the most useful to me."
"There are a lot of features available in this solution, it has been very easy to use. We have found it to be less complex and user-friendly compared to other solutions we have used."
"It allows you to create a new column using split on a current column, which we find very useful."
"This solution has improved our organization by making our analysis results available to customers."
"It connects very simply to data sources."
"We have found the use of AI to be the most valuable feature."
"Quick reporting."
"It is a comprehensive BI solution that provides reporting, planning, and predictive analytics in one solution. You don't have to buy three different products. It is very flexible. It can be implemented very quickly. It has a lot of out-of-the-box scenarios that you can use for quick deployment."
"The ease of use of the solution is its most valuable feature. We haven't tried all of the features yet. The graphing and the ease of using the analytics tools have been great. It's all drag and drop; you don't need to code anything."
"One feature I've found most valuable is discovery."
"The Smart Predict, Smart Insights, and Smart Discovery predictive analysis features are quite good."
"The stories have really been helpful in looking at specific scenarios and analyzing trends over periods of time."
"It's many features make it the best in the market."
"All of the modules that we used to have separately in our on-premises solution are now integrated into one platform."
"Technical support is helpful."
"This solution would be improved by adding some Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) components that are easier to interpret and design."
"Ultra-customization: It needs no limits on which charts can have x amount of dimensions, y amount of measures, z amount of color expressions, etc."
"I'd like to see more end-user-friendly UI designs."
"There is an inability to effectively manage (pre)caching (scheduling, assigning for respective user groups, etc), especially without community extensions or uour own development."
"There is no downside."
"The on-demand report generation button in Qlik Sense currently doesn't work if NPrinting requires Okta verification, which our company uses."
"Integrated maps should become part of the Qlik Sense, as opposed to buying an additional module just to power the BI, which has it built-in natively within the application."
"The only thing I would say that comes up is that sometimes it can be a bit buggy."
"There should be more features for the time series charts."
"I would also like to have more advanced features for predictive analytics."
"It seems like there's a problem with the tool's licenses. If there are a lot of users, like 200, who only use the solution once a year, paying for a full-year license for each user is expensive. There's no option for users who only use the solution occasionally."
"The general management of this solution could be improved. The graphics or icons could also be improved to allow them to integrate with other environments on the web."
"One area for improvement in SAP Analytics Cloud is incorporating Python into the coding. That functionality is available, but it's not as efficient, and it's a bit difficult sometimes to do it, so that could be improved."
"Some of the standard visualizations, such as a speedometer or a goal chart, are not there and should be added."
"One potential improvement is how we can transpose data. With SAP, if you have data from one system with a declared data type and a different system with another data type, the transfer is tricky."
"The budget management could be better."
